#213 In the field: Brookgreen Gardens Workshop

Portable clay warming device:
heat lamp and bucket

Monday morning was the first day of my 3-day 2012 Brookgreen Gardens Bird Anatomy and Sculpture Workshop. For information about Brookgreen Gardens please refer to brookgreen.org and brookgreenworkshops.com

Teaching bird anatomy and sculpture is a personal discipline and has been rewarding
over the years in that I continue to explore, learn and stay in touch with the basics.
This afternoon will end a 3-day information packed introduction to bird sculpture,
and the 4 "A's": anatomy, aerodynamics, armature building, and art.

Workshops provide continuing education for adults and an opportunity to learn from a working, professional artist/instructor. I enjoy working with students of all levels of proficiency; particularly beginners and painters. We focus on birds in flight and my teaching method is structured and methodical . . . a step by step "follow me" approach.
